LOUDlight: my first solo exhibtion

NWalton@acpmagazines.com.au

2007 was a busy and exciting year for commercial photographer Cybele Malinowski and the the time has come to exhibit her very personal selection of photographs for all the music hungry world to see.

Cybele spent the best part of 2007 shooting Australia’s great musicians, bands and entertainers for album covers, magazines and label promotion. She has travelled all over this vast nation meeting and capturing the talented array of music stars that Oz has on offer.

Cybele’s solo exhibition “loudlight” will display massive translucent life-size prints on custom light boxes in a blacked-out MTV Gallery creating an out-of-this-world experience. Some of the artists featured include Daniel Johns, Bernard Fanning, Josh Pike, Dapple Cities Fly, Ben Lee, Young and Restless, PNAU, Muscles, Midnight Juggernauts and Catcall.

Most of this work has been shot in studio with her dramatic and unique lighting techniques. Location shoots were undertaken with equal technical complexity and prowess, pumping out brilliant romantic imagery. It is this ardent commitment to her own lighting style that sets her apart from the rest and lays her future claim to a place in art history.
